Warren Buffett (voiced by Himself in 2011–2013, Guy Pinkham in 2013–2014) – Warren Buffett is a millionaire who serves as the wise mentor of Elena, Jones, Radley, and Lisa.Elena Ramirez (voiced by Julie Maddalena) – Elena is an eternal optimist with an upbeat personality who takes a positive approach to life. In her brown eyes, the world is neither black nor white but awash in many shades. Her thinking is smart and concise. She is the swing vote between Jones and Radley when neither can see the others' point of view. If Elena were a stockbroker, she'd be both a bull and a bear depending on market conditions.David Allan Jones (voiced by Steve Staley) – Jones is funny, loud, the daredevil of the group, and a sports fanatic. In fact, his clothing attire usually has one piece of sporting equipment attached to one of his hands. He's a risk-taker and his impulsiveness often gets him into trouble. If the world is a chess game, Jones is off playing checkers. He rarely looks before he leaps nor does he usually think ahead to examine the consequences of his actions. His friends have to do that for him.Radley Hemming (voiced by Ogie Banks in 2011–2013, Chris Jai Alex in 2013–2014) – Radley is all intellectual, a "techie" supreme, the kid who would shower with his computer if he could. Conservative in nature, he balances his emotions with a practical and well thought out approach to life. He never makes a move without first examining every possible result. His slow and methodical deliberations drives Jones to distraction. In the world of investing, they make a winning pair.Starty (voiced by Chris Jai Alex) – Radley's robot.D.E.B. (voiced by Debbie Bosanek) – An application that is on Radley's tablet computer. Radley would often consult D.E.B. about any word definitions.Hou "Lisa" Lihua (voiced by Stephanie Sheh) – Lisa is a Beijing student who never leaves without her Parisian purse. Lisa would do nearly almost anything to join the United Nations.Warren Buffett – Himself (2011–2013)Guy Pinkham – Warren Buffett (2013–2014)Chris Jai Alex – Starty, Radley Hemming (2013–2014)Ogie Banks – Radley Hemming (2011–2013)Debbie Bosanek – D.E.B.Julie Maddalena – Elena RamirezStephanie Sheh – Hou "Lisa" LihuaSteve Staley – David Allan Jones, Sir Lancelot (ep. 11–13), David Beeks (ep. 18)Odell Atkinson – Ian Graham (ep. 9), Atan (ep. 10)Seth O.
